At last, Kemi Adeosun, Muhammadu Buhari’s cockney
accented Minister of Finance has finally resigned. Kemi claims she did not know
her National Youth Service Corps exemption certificate was forged and I believe
her.
I read her
letter and it made sense. I believe she is an unfortunate victim of
circumstances. Ordinarily, I would have called for her prosecution, but this
was an honest mistake and she should not be punished beyond her resignation.

Having said that, it is surprising that President Buhari accepted her resignation on the ground that she has a forged certificate. The question is what should a man whose certificate is suspected not to have ever even existed do in such a circumstance? Muhammadu Buhari claims to be a man of integrity, but when challenged to provide his West African School Certificate results for perusal, the famously boastful Buhari responded by hiring thirteen Senior Advocates of Nigeria to hide behind a wall of legalese.
